  1. […] In addition, he was just named Nassau County player of the year. (For a look at all the Nassau player of the year awards, click here.) […]

    Solid choices all around.

    Saw Thomas Keith a few times this year for Syosset. Thought he should’ve gotten defenseman of the year. He’s going to be great at Cornell. Not sure where Capellini is going. Does anyone know? He’s good but the fact Syosset was under 500 probably hurt Keith.

  4. Setlax says:

    Capellini is going to Harvard so I quess we will know in four years who the better defenseman will be.

  5. Taz says:

    Cappelini is headed to Harvard. The fact that he was the concensus top close defenseman on the Empire team probably helped too.

    I was just wondering where you got the picture of Froccaro?
